www.FAMILYRADIO.com has bought billboards and a very expensive full page advertisement in the USA Today newspaper to announce that the end of the world will begin with a worldwide earthquake on Saturday, 21 May 2011.
They acknowledge that Mark 13:32 says, "But of that day and [that] hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father." They say, "The Bible declares that "No Man Knows" is describing the unsaved condition of mankind. If you are saved then we may know all things spiritually discerned in God's Word." They also deny that "the Son" mentioned in Mark 13:32 is Jesus; they say the Son is Satan, the "son of perdition." The "angels in heaven" are the fallen angels who were cast out of Heaven because of their rebellion against God. (I will have something to say about these claims later).
The theology expressed here and the dating of the Judgement Day are based on the calculations of Harold Camping (b. 1921, Colorado, USA). He previously announced that the Rapture would occur in 1994.
If the announcement is correct, then all Spirit-led Christians are ready. I am ready as all of you should be, but what I suspect will happen is nothing. The followers of Harold Camping will join a long line of other disappointed people who have thought that the date that they set was the proper one. And the result will be that they will have brought reproach and derision upon the Church, the ἐκκλησία.
